Jewelry Repair Question

I'm no gem expert but that sounds very strange to me also. I have also had no issues with any of the stones in my wedding or engagement bands.
Every once in a while someone will tell me story about a stone popping out, but as often as you have experienced - no way.

Agree with this. Once, I can understand...but three times in 3 years seems very excessive.

A friend of mine lost the diamond in her engagement ring, but the stone itself was an old family heirloom and the cut made it less than ideal for setting in a ring. So maybe the stone is being cut in such a way as to cause a poor fit? If you can't get satisfaction from the store I'd go to corporate.

That seems odd to me. It's like not he bought a pice of costume jewelry that's low quality (though I have zero experience with Jared). How disappointing!

Seems excessive to me. I have a pretty cheap ring from Kay jewelers and my side stones kept falling out, same deal. I think the big box jewelers don't have as good quality as the smaller local jewelers.
